Polk Atrium 45 - OUTSTANDING outdoor speakers for a low price [Posted on 2008-09-29]
I purchased these speakers to mount outdoors, under my permanently camped 31' travel trailer. I am very pleased with the sound quality and am surprised at how good the bass response is. Don't get me wrong, you won't mistake these speakers for a 15" subwoofer, but they sound very full and solid for small speakers with 4.5" woofers that I paid only ~$120 a pair for.
I am driving them with an Aiwa CDC-X504MP car stereo that puts out ~20 watts/channel into 4 ohms. Since the Atriums are 8 ohm speakers, I get less than 20 watts/channel. If I were buying an amp, I'd buy one with more power, but I had the Aiwa lying around. My setup easily fills my 30'x20' camper lot with quality sound, however, this setup will not provide ear splitting sound levels.
I was very impressed with the weight of each speaker; I was also impressed with the build quality of the enclosure and the gold plated 5-way connectors.
Overall - The Polk Atrium 45s are an outstanding value. I would highly recommend them.
another great speaker via Polk [Posted on 2008-10-06]
Own several Polk speakers and love them all.
Mounting bracket is sturdy and well designed to hold speaker in any position. Good job Polk!
Speaker life [Posted on 2008-10-14]
these speakers have a great sound, but my experience is they don't last in the weather, I had to replace both speakers over a period of 2 years
Great little speakers [Posted on 2008-10-14]
These are great little speakers. They appear very well made and were easy to install. Sound quality is excellent although as noted by some other reviewers they might be a little bright for certain tastes. I did not want thumping bass outside, just good clear vocals. These speakers certainly deliver.
Excellent speakers...somewhat directional [Posted on 2008-11-26]
Excellent speakers, a lot of quality for the price. They are quite directional, so you have to be aware of the listening positions when mounting. Able to handle robust sound level and a fair amount of bass boost.
